Many serious accidents have occurred because a machine was started when it should have been completely turned off to prevent maintenance or repair. These incidents are usually the result of stored energy that has not been properly released. Lock-out tag-out (LOTO) systems help to prevent these accidents by making sure that the machines remain off until a person authorized releases them.
The LOTO system consists of a series of locks tags, locks and other devices that are used to secure, isolate or isolate the device from electrical power. All "affected", "authorized", and "qualified" personnel must be trained on the use of lockout/tagout devices. These devices include but aren't only chains, locks padlocks, wedges adapter pins and self-locking fasteners. Each device is identified and labeled, with the date and time of application and the name of the authorized person and the reason behind the lockout/tag-out (repair maintenance, repair, etc.). It must be clearly stated that these devices are not to be removed until the LOTO procedure is complete.
